Odd problem with FONTBOOK APP/FINDER/DESKTOP??

Recently loaded ACaslon Pro.otf into fontbook.
Opened-Preview/Repertoire to search for miscellaneous ornaments
A Dialog box opened headed “Characters” THIS SUCKER WILL NOT GO AWAY
I have DELETED THE FONT, quit FONTBOOK, RESTARTED THE MAC 10 TIMES, FORCE QUIT THE FINDER, RUN TECHTOOLS PRO 5
but to no avail!!
This dialog box now open on the screen (IN THE SAME POSITION) for 4-5 sec every time I click on other open dialog boxes
It’s now grayed out (no controls) and is totally bugging the crap out of me.
All other functions on this mac are operating perfectly.
I use my Macs professionally and have never had a problem that I couldn’t fix.
This one has me stumped!
ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

but it just re-creates itself at startup??
Yes, it should. That's a normal preference file to have.
I did miss listing the other preference file to remove to fix the "jack-in-the-box" character palette. In Preferences folder of your user account, trash the file:
com.apple.CharPaletteServer.plist
Restart or logout/login as before.

  • Hi i'm using iphone 4 and i have problem with viber apps while i'm installing

    hi i'm using iphone 4 and i have problem with viber apps while i'm installing & registration process its says error on system mainternance. can you please help me out?
    thank you.

    OK, let's try again. Wind is NOT a supported carrier. In order to use tethering, it must be supported and activated by your carrier for the iPhone. This usually involves an additional fee.  You will have to ask your carrier if they can enable it. Odds are, since they are not a supported carrier, they can not. If you want to use tethering, you will most likely have to switch to a supported carrier that offers this feature on the iPhone.
    A list of supported carriers can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937

  • Problem with the synchronization by Desktop Software (6.1.0.35)

    Hi, i have a big problem with the  synchronization by Desktop Software (6.1.0.35).
    When I installed DS i set to folder sync photos not as
    ... Documents / BlackBerry / photo (created by default),
    but i chose
    ... Documents / Pictures / Photos from the BlackBerry (created by me).
    Basically now I try to change the import folder of images, but it appears the error that is
    "Can not set a folder to import to a higher level of import folder"
    I tried deleting / Photos from the BlackBerry, and not finding my DS it says:
    "The import folder is not available ... etc.." and tells me to change it or with the button or the Media tab of the Device menu> Options.
    I do it but the message is always the same: "Unable to set a higher level of import folder to import folder"
    I find it an absurd bug and ask to help me solve it. Thanks

    Well folks. I've had enough.
    The 9780 is a great phone, it's easy to use, practical and dependable. However, the Desktop Manager software has been giving me too many sleepless nights. On two occassions I must add: once at the end of last year when I bought it and only managed to solve it by myself after 4 weeks of trawling through online forums, blogs and other BB help sites and the recent one was last week when I tried to install it on my new Windows 7 notebook.
    I know this is not entirely the fault of RIM, Microsoft also has a part to play. But considering the state of technology these days, it shouldn't have to be so difficult. I want a phone and software that makes my life easier and not have to be a slave to it by trying days and nights to solve its problems.
    Hence, I have officially decom my phone and gotten an iPhone 4 instead. The switch ain't that difficult for me as I have always been platform neutral. As long it fits my needs, does it job well and doesn't give me too much headache, I'm cool with it.
    Ciao folks!

  • Problems with n97 apps connecting to network (Voda...

    Problems with n97 apps connecting to network (Vodafone UK – 3G)
    Recently a number of my apps which used to connect automatically to the internet (which ever was available – known wi-fi or 3g) have stopped doing this.  They now only connect to one known wi-fi.
    I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling each app, but this hasn’t solved the problem.  I’ve checked for software updates and do not believe any have been applied or are available.  All apps have been downloaded via Ovi on the phone.  I still am able to access the internet by the web browser which was installed on the phone and via google maps (which also still manages GPS position, search, etc).
    The apps which I notice causing a problem are:
    Sainsbury’s/nectar
    Tesco
    Map my tracks
    Snaptu
    Opera Mini
    Any one got any ideas???

    I have the same problem since i updated my mac to 10.5.6.
    Each time I have to do a diagnostic and retype the WEP password to have the internet connection.

  • Problems with Remote App on iOS 4?

    I have a new iPhone 4 and tried to use the Remote App in Connection with Apple TV. While I'am able to pair the remote app with Apple TV, I cannot use it properly. It works for a while, then it get's disconnected with a message that maybe a Firewall might be activated in the Router.
    I have no problems with Remote App connected to my iTunes Library. I also tried it with a iPod Touch which is still on iOS 3.1.3, no problems to connect to the Apple TV from there as well.
    Are there any known problems with iOS 4 and Apple TV?

    i have the remote app on my iphone4 and it's connected to 2 appletv's.
    i don't experience any dropping of connection etc.
    May I ask what wifi hardware you use? It might be an wifi issue, but one which is only related with the "Bonjour" protocol which seems to be used for the Remote App. I found this thread which is older (iOS 3) but describing exactly the same problems:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2048555&start=0&tstart=0
    bear in mind that the iphone4 is now "n" wifi compatible (2.4Ghz), so could it be that the "n" part of your network is poor and thus why you only see the problem on the iphone4 ?
    At least it is not poor when using it from other devices or moving a lot of data in other Apps. It is all Apple Hardware (nothing older than 2 years), and maybe that's the problem. I never had network hardware which made so much trouble, as Apples Airport series. I wouldn't wonder if it is an incompatibility between a new wifi chip in the iPhone 4 and a older Revision of an Airport device. But I don't know how to check - is there a system.log on the iPhone which I can access somehow?

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

    If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

    Have you tried signing out of your iTunes & App Store on your device and then back in again - Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on Apple ID, then on Sign Out. Then sign in again and see if it accepts the password.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue,  try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the reset is complete, the Slide to Unlock screen will display. See if the problem is resolved.

    Do you have a lot of apps? Did you use a lot of apps recently? If so, many of them may still be resident in memory even if you aren't currently using them. Double-tap the home key and you should see the app tray with a list of most recently used programs. Press and hold the icons in the tray and remove the ones you don't use often to remove them from memory. Powering off and then back on might also help.
    My wife's iPod does that sometimes, and it's usually because we run out of memory due to apps remaining in memory even when not used. The suggestion above is how we normally fix the problems.

  • I have a problem with downloading app (Twitter) from App Store.

    I have a problem with downloading app (Twitter) from App Store. I don't want this app. It is not downloaded yet, the download is still in progress.  I have limited data plan and I don't have a chance to finish the download via PC. The size of the app - 33 mb. Could you please cancel the download process so I will be able to remove the icon.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    Are you able to connect to a wifi network - tapping the app should pause the download of the app and change it to 'waiting', so you should be able to pause the download until you have access to a wifi network.
